Turchynov admitted as much on Wednesday saying that "it is hard to accept but it's the truth. The majority of law enforcers in the east are incapable of performing their duties."

The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry hasn't yet named the individual, but said he was taken into custody on Wednesday and has been ordered to leave the country.

The Ministry issued a statement on the incident, saying "the military-naval attaché of the embassy of the Russian Federation in Ukraine is declared persona non grata in connection with his actions, which are not in accordance with his diplomatic status."
